I know we don't have a lot at our disposal but every single manager never learns from calling up guys who are barely playing for their club, not scoring and not in form.

Oliver Burke, 3 appearances on loan at Alaves all season. 0 goals.

The Scottish Gareth Bale

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Still playing at CSKA. Was injured most of last season.

Every season he's been hit with injuries. He's been out for near on 9 months this time around. He's struggling for fitness after his latest injury, cruciates.

Shame, talented player.

 

[The Reaper]

It’ll be good to see Fleck in action tonight but let’s not kid ourselves, this is a home win. It’s a dreadful looking defence.

 

[c9gran1]

going By that line up I’d imagine there’s quite the height difference between Russia and Scotland! Corners and set pieces shud be interesting

 

[Barcelona72]

I hope the Russian police don't mistake Clarke for a tramp. They can be quite brutal on loiterers over there.

Sorry DW but I hope they do.

 

[EKBB]

I would have thought the game would have started about 6pm considering Moscow is 2hrs ahead, means the game starts at 9.45pm local time

Devlin and Mulgrew though, Russia are going to have a field day with that pairing

Hamish and co will be absolutely steaming

 

[Coop22]

This won’t be pretty
To be fair Steve Clarke heading to the home of Vodka was always going to lead to some fucked up decisions

 

[dh1963]

The players always look embarrassed when they sing Flower of Scotland.

 

[AndyWebsterLoyal]

I noticed the thread title has changed to make sure we stay on topic. That seems like wishful thinking.

 

[KingsparK Ranger]

How much of an alky jakeball does clarke look lol

 

[dh1963]

Why is Greg Taylor on the bench? Has he even played a game this season?

Because he played for Kilmarnock

 

[Ambiorix]

The bird singing the anthem would definitely get it.

 

[rossgers]

Mikey fucking Devlin?? Is this a Scottish RC select?

 

[the_baron]

The players always look embarrassed when they sing Flower of Scotland.

It's a terrible anthem when you consider other songs that could be our anthem.

 

[Fred-Bassey]

Had to switch over to the NI game for the national anthems

 

[noucamp72]

Think it will be a lot tighter than expected.

 

[A Magician Named Gob]

It's a terrible anthem when you consider other songs that could be our anthem.

Like?

 

[Oduwa]

Terrible from Snodgrass.

 

[Bolton Bear]

I despise it mate GSTQ is our natIonal anthem.

 

[Coopers left foot.]

Sheffield Wednesday player, right back, has a Scottish granny (and isn’t related to Carlton Palmer)

Demand it Liam.

 

[bob1873]

They should refuse to sing it after all its racist dirge.

 

[A kind of blue]

Provan on Golovin

Who we know from Hampden

Not the world Cup where he shone?

 

[Fred-Bassey]

The sash

 

[Macdonsj]

Snodgrass is monumentally shite

 

[Arkanoid]

I see even mighty Cyprus turned over Kazakhstan away from home. A battling 0-0 would build confidence but we're not set up the way Alky set up Kilmarnock for some unbeknownst reason

 

[Bear all]

Charlie Mulgrew why I ask just why.

 

[Corporal Clegg]

Im baffled about what our formation and tactics are.

 

[A Magician Named Gob]

Im baffled about what our formation and tactics are.

10 men behind the ball and try not to let it get embarrassing.

Formation, tactics and team talk in one.

 

[ekbear]

Russia queuing up at the back post there and hit the defender with the ball.

Only a matter of time before they score.

 

[Realger34]

Snodgrass is monumentally shite

Running like he’s got a piano tied to his arse.

 

[Truffle Shuffle]

I hope the Russian police mistake Clarke for a tramp. They can be quite brutal on loiterers over there.

Removed the word you surely didn't mean to have in that comment.

 

[Marlo Stanfield]

Burke is a dreadful footballer.

 

[imvaison]

Im baffled about what our formation and tactics are.

It’s psychology mate - all done to confuse the Russians. We really know what we’re doing in reality !

 

[Macdonsj]

Running like he’s got a piano tied to his arse.

Should've stuck to singing with Mulligan

 

[Realger34]

See this half out if we are lucky.

 

[AnglianBear]

Hows Flecky playing?

 

[the_baron]

Like?

Highland Cathedral
Scotland the Brave

 

[BroomloanWATP]

Burke is a dreadful footballer.

A poundstretcher Kenny Miller.

 

[ohstefanklos]

Right lads just aim the ball for Burke and Burke when you get just get your head down and run anywhere

 

[Corporal Clegg]

Mexican waves are a riddy.

 

[Macdonsj]

He jinxed the Belgium game
As soon as he mentioned it was goaless they scored

 

[Realger34]

F.ucking hell put Fraser in ffs!!

 

[Oduwa]

Does Snodgrass play for West Ham?

 

[rossgers]

Snodgrass is monumentally shite

Playing like an aging Rasputin

 

[williewoodburn]

I rarely listen to Sky but is this typical of their commentary ?

You'd think they were covering a funeral.
